Is there any way you could slow these videos down to a normal speed. The few times I've found one of your videos where you write in real time, had been SO GREAT FOR ME. There have got to be other newbies out there like me. I just want to write asking with you. These warp factor 10 speedy videos are so stressful coz I'm trying to write with you. And why? Because i can!! I can write better than any other things, s when i follow your lead. Please consider my request. ❤

When you FIRST put you pen down to draw you lower case 'b', how do you make that smooth tiny beginning..i don't know what to call it. The first mark you hake with your pen. It looks finished and smooth and i tiny bit.. shaped rounded..i can't explain what I'm trying to say. How do you first put your brush down to hake lower case b, h, f and k?

Here's something crazy. I was p practicing my cursed round and oval shapes like i do for hours and weeks and months... to only succeed at 1 out of 100 it feels like. so today and I don't know why but I started drawing them l the opposite way.. clockwise. We're taught to draw our round and oval shapes counter clockwise. Ya know what? I made row after row after row of PERFECT FREAKING OVALS AND CIRCLES! Not one of them took the effort that drawing them the correct way takes. They were perfect. WTF?? SARAH! Why? I've worked so hard these last couple of months and most of my letters turn out fine... as long as they don't need a circle or an oval! Oh yeah and as long ad they don't have any Ascenders Descenders!😂... other than that I'm doing GREAT😖
